Just what I needed!
My stay was too short, but they cover every detail for the most relaxing and comfortable stay. I could go on and on. Andrew was so patient with me, getting me settled in, answering my questions. I was unable to visit the restaurant but the vibe was great and customers were having a great time. Looking forward to going back for a much longer stay.

Fun place to stay
We were here for our 32nd wedding anniversary. We stayed at this location a couple of years before COVID-19 when it was Hotel 11, and my wife loves the deep soaker tub in the larger rooms. Unfortunately, we were not aware of the fact that some renovations to the ourside of the property were taking place when we made the reservation. Fortunately, it did not affect our stay, as the workers were very nice, and since my wife and I are fluent in both Spanish and Portuguese, we made sure to communicate with them in their native tongue (Spanish) to let them know what room we were in if they needed us to move our vehicle for them for any reason (they did not need us to). We also spoke to one of them who was working on a new outside decorative fountain in the courtyard for a little while. He was doing excellent tile work and he was super nice! Vicki, Andrew, and Cassie from the hotel were great! The restaurant (Poeta) was fabulous! We split a Caesar salad. We normally do not eat croutons but these were NOT ordinary croutons! Although I still limited myself, they were fresh, homemade, buttery, and delicious!!! I had the branzino and my wife had some of the fresh made pasta. Simply, wonderful!

Frances Modern Inn was a great choice for our stay in Austin - we didnt realise when we booked but the area around the hotel ended up being our favourite area in Austin, lots of great bars and food options (bbq,tacos and brunch places) within 10 minute walk. Its a self service check in but the staff were so freindly and always checking in via the messaging service to check everything was okay and offfering suggestions if we needed! We booked a small room as we were only staying for a few days but were moved to a bigger room when we arrived to give us more space, which was a really lovely touch. As a more boutique/self service hotel there arent many amenities but there's a communal seating area with coffee machine/fridge with cold waters available and games/books - a really appreciated touch in the summer heat. We saw two rooms and which were both decorated nicely and the bathrooms seem recently redone to a very high standard - amazing rainfall showers and lovely smelling refillable products.

Best Staycation ever
Wonderful experience - we had a staycation to celebrate our anniversary and the owners were so kind to arrange flowers and a bottle of champagne on arrival. The room was spectacular - a vintage chic vibe that whisked us away to 1920’s Paris. We ordered food from Poeta (the restaurant linked to the hotel) and it was excellent. The food was delicious but also great value for money. Can recommend this gem enough

Very clean and extremely friendly staff, especially Vickie! She even came out to meet us in the offsite parking lot.The only negative was the parking, but that’s the nature of downtown Austin. Even though the parking wasn’t great, we will be back. This is our new hotel for stays in Austin! Thank you Frances Modern for an enjoyable getaway.

Lux and Lovely
Absolutely lovely accommodations. The room is charming with a huge bathroom and the most comfortable bed and pillows. The balcony opens up to the street overlooking the neighborhood and the big heavy doors are very safe and block out the noise. The black out curtains work really well too! I appreciate the fridge in the room and I love the coffee available with the communal space in the breezeway. Although I never saw any staff, they were great to communicate via text and very helpful. The property is spotless and full of great murals and decor. I highly recommend for anyone not wanting to be downtown or on Congress!
